Investigation into Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff’s firing incident has taken a new turn, as reports emerged that superstar Salman Khan was the intended target of the alleged attack. The emergence of this new development has reignited the security debate over bigwigs of Bollywood and the possible connection of the shooting with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.The accused had done some sort of reconnaissance near Salman Khan’s house in Mumbai. But then they changed their plan due to the security arrangements outside Galaxy Apartments,” said police officials, according to media reports. Police are now probing the allegations while trying to establish the motive and timeline of the incident. 

Why did the investigation turn towards Salman Khan?

The leak of the results has sparked speculation about whether Tiger Shroff was the primary target or whether the accused changed their plans after seeing the security outside Salman Khan’s house. The reports stated that the accused persons allegedly had difficulty in approaching Khan on account of security arrangements. Later, gunfire was also allegedly fired at Tiger Shroff’s car in the the Juhu locality of Mumbai. This claim has injected a new line of investigation, but the unsubstantiated assertion of a change of target is, again, up to investigators to prove through evidence, witness accounts and other leading findings.

What Happened During the Tiger Shroff Firing Incident?

The incident is said to have happened on Sunday night as the actor was exiting a football ground in Mumbai’s Juhu area. As per reports, two persons on a bike fired shots at his car while the third person was a part of their getaway. The suspects apparently fled the scene after firing some shots. The progression of the suspects’ movements following the shooting played a key role in the subsequent police investigation and arrests. Investigations focus on how the shooting occurred, including whom the police believe committed the attack and the reason for it. Taken alone, the press reports do not show a complete line of responsibility.

Arrests Raise New Questions

According to reports published on October 21, 2026, police say that multiple suspects have been taken into custody in the case. According to reports, authorities are questioning the accused over the alleged conspiracy, their travels before the shooting, and the potential link to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. The answers to the questions could lead the authorities to discover whether the attack was part of a conspiracy against the stars of Bollywood or if there was any other reason. Authorities will have to test the accused persons’ statements against other evidence before jumping to any conclusions. An arrest and an accusation are not the same thing.

Salman Khan’s Security is back in the spotlight.

Salman Khan has been made in past cases, and the security arrangements of the actor have once again come under the scanner in the latest reports. Previously, Galaxy Apartment, the actor’s flat was mentioned in the information for safety concerns in the firing incident occurred in April 2024. What has come as yet one more shame to the Tiger Shroff case is its check result, which has highlighted the security weaknesses of high-profile celebrities and the dangers faced by the police to keep away from targeted assaults.

What Happens Next in the Investigation?

The questions are whether the accused had Salman Khan in mind, then why was Tiger Shroff targeted and finally, what does evidence say about the accused’s nexus with the accused.The police will have to establish the motivation for the alleged crime, check the reconnaissance and investigation that was said to be carried out, and investigate the connection to the accused in the shooting. Further information from authorities and court proceedings will hopefully shed more light on the situation.So far, the claimed revelation has become a big development in the Tiger Shroff firing case. However, as the investigation progresses, the right motive and the fake link of the two actors still remain to be established.
